I'm a little late to the ME2 party (just finished the suicide mission last night) and i loved the entire experience, and am FREAKING OUT for ME3 as one of my MUST HAVE games for Q4 2011/Q1 2012 (the latter being where ME3 was delayed)
Any info? things that might get carried over? potentiallities for the game? questions as to what took me so long to play the best RPG of all time?
I'm going to do the suicide mission for the second time tomorrow. Mass Effect 2 is freaking awesome. I expect a lot from ME3. I want it. I need it. EDI returns so it has to be good.
I have ME2 I've decided to wait until ME3 comes out and plan to play them back to back. It's the number one game I'm looking forward to this year.
same thing here... kinda. I had ME1 on my harddrive for a year with a Paragon Soldier on it. Once i got ME2 in December 2010, i decided to finally beat teh first ME. Best idea ever. I had Mass Effect 2 lying around for four months... only on April 23rd did i beat ME1 and began my journey into the magnificence of ME2.
CAN WE FINALLY GO ON EARTH BIOWARE? I mean, i've probed the entire solar system in ME2, and flew by our blue-and-green world more than once... can we finally walk around on it?
Well the Normandy SR2 returns after it has been taken by the alliance and has been given new rooms. Ashley Williams can be a squad member. I have a feeling Shepard will be with the Alliance.
Also, @ChillzMaster : After seeing the trailer, I don't really want to be on Earth.
Okay, here's the full list that I can gather for squad members:
Kaidan Alenko Tali'Zorah Liara T'Soni Garrus Vakarian James Vega (new member, Alliance soldier) Ashley Williams
Returning Characters (may or may not be squad members):
Legion David Anderson Donnel Udina (obviously not a member of your squad) Mordin Solus EDI (HOORAY! EDI ROCKS!) Urdnot Wrex (I didn't play ME1 but I have a feeling he'll be dead for me) The Illusive Man (obviously) Thane Krios (When will he die? He's sick!) Jack (She was the only one that died on my second suicide run. I might do a third one to have her live but I don't think she's worth it.) Zaeed Massani
And of course.... Joker
Kai Leng from ME: Retribution will also be in ME3.
You'll be able to visit the Quarian homeworld, Rannoch, invaded by Geth.
By the way, I did not blow up the Collector Base, and I did not kill the Geth 'heretics'.
I'm going to buy any upgraded edition of the game. If they try to pull off a $150, I might have to buy it. We'll find out more near the end of the year.
Imagine if you pay $150, you get a Reaper statue. Yeah, you want it.
